The documentary film "The Grave," which is about a mass grave found in the occupied Izium, will be presented in London

On November 6th, the official premiere of the documentary film "The Grave" took place on British channels ITV1 and ITV. This film was created by journalists from the Kharkiv regional publication "Gvara Media" in collaboration with the British Studio 9 Films. Furthermore, a presentation of the film will occur at the London Frontline Club on Friday, November 10th.

The film combines the stories of Izium residents who survived the occupation with comments from Ukrainian investigators and special service personnel who identify and determine the involvement of Russian occupiers in Russian war crimes. As one of the film's heroes stated, what the Russian military did can be considered a crime against humanity and could be called genocide.
